I found this topic after having my controller keep slowly moving upwards all the time, but thought the idea of just buying a new controller, a bit too excessive.

So I played around with various other options and finally fixed it by moving the stick in different positions and blowing as hard as I could around the ball at the base of the controller stick, to remove any dust etc which may of got inside.

It works perfectly now.

You can use the ps4 web browser to know when it's fixed, by moving the cursor in different directions and then see if it carry's on moving by itself or not

Update: I also found it useful to get a thin piece of card (about 5mm's wide) and slide it down between then start to rotate the controller stick, as this removes other gunk that blowing wont always get rid off.

My right analog stick would move up on its own at random and I tried everything from resetting it, to opening it up to clean all of the contacts and prop up the little squishy bit that presses the plastic circuit to make contact with the circuit board. I spent about three hours trying things, putting the controller back together, trying it out, and starting over. I just found this comment and tried it out, and now it works perfectly

Water use isnt advised as it can cause damage to electronics inside, making the issue worse. If you want to try an alternative to a repair service, try spraying compressed air onto the balls of both analogues, this will clean it out and hopefully sort your issue, never use your own breath as it can leave moisture inside, having the same effect as putting water onto it

Marcelo Marques, that is the sign of a wore out analog controller. You will have to replace it. The controller is available at places like this This will require to unsolder the old one and then resolder the new controller. Hope this helps, good luck.

I had the same problem but I guess i had to trick my way through it...lol! When it shifts to the unwanted position calibrate it and make sure no button is pressed during calibration...this is more like making a new setting over the default. Thank me later... cheers

Same as mine, my right analogue stick moves up by itself. I thought is was just a matter of replacing the entire analogue stick but seeing as that would require soldering, I would much rather use a repair service

If you want honesty, I was reading this thread while I fixed it, I hammer punched it fairly lightly, it worked, but I could lock the analog stick to the left, I put some water on the left side of the left analog stick's ball, now it works fine!

Hey, i have had this problem too, mine is with the dualshock 4 controller for the ps4, some argue that it just needs replacing of the entire controller because it is worn out, i have experienced this problem for around a month and still cant find answers, i have even taken the controller apart completely and as i wish i could replace just the joystick but it seems to be a permanent build

I have this problem on my first controller then I buy another one because its anoying , now my new controller i bought it last month is now having this issue, I restart it and blow it . Can someone explain to me whats happening
